DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Elena Ryabeva (NRNU MEPhI)\nThere is description of 
 the development of detectors for neutrons\,  based on  polystyrene and cad
 mium layers.  Cadmium is used as neutron’s converters via reaction (n\,
 γ)  and polystyrene  is used as scintillation material to register the or
 iginated gamma quanta. The simulation and experimental investigations of p
 roposed detectors design are presented. The main advantages of proposed de
 tection is short measurement time- approximately 5 µsec. It is shown that
  the principle\, suggested in the models\, can be applied to the detection
  of neutrons from a pulsed neutron source\, for example\, secondary neutro
 ns\, generated by hadron showers in the space environment or by high-inten
 sity pulsed sources based on accelerators. Detection efficiency for the 24
 *20 cm2 size detector model\, measured during the experiment and simulated
  by the Monte Carlo technique is about 1% with the measurement time being 
 approximately 5 µsec\n\nhttps://indico.particle.mephi.ru/event/4/contribu
